Predicting Rookie RB Fantasy Success (Using Data!) | 2025 NFL Draft

In this edition of the Fantasy Life Show, fantasy football experts Dwain McFarland and Ian Hartitz set out in the (seemingly) impossible task of trying to predict how this running back class in the NFL Draft will fare in fantasy football in 2025 and beyond! Using data points from draft capital to college production to film grades and more, the boys dive into Dwain's Rookie Super Model in order to find the truth if this running back class truly is as hyped up as it should be or if it may fall below expectations for fantasy football. In today's episode: - Is Ashton Jeanty truly one of the best running back prospects we have ever seen? - How high will Cam Skattebo's rankings jump if he is taken higher than expected in the draft? - Is Omarion Hampton an RB1 in his rookie season for fantasy football? Whether you're doing research for your dynasty fantasy football drafts or looking to get more in depth analysis ahead of the NFL Draft later this month, let this episode of the Fantasy Life Show be your one-stop-shop for all things running backs in the 2025 NFL Draft! ______________________ 👋👋 Welcome to Fantasy Life!
